You Aren’t Supposed To Watch This Video, Which is Why You’ll Want To

Humans are curious creatures, tell us not to do or watch or read something, and we’ll want to do the exact opposite. ASAP Science look at the science behind why we do this. It’s similar to why we click on clickbait, which is essentially because when we click on a question-posing headline that baits us, we get fulfilment when we learn the answer and dopamine is released.

Similarly when we’re told “Do Not Touch” we get pleasure from breaking the rules and doing the opposite. That or you may just be a genetically predisposed rule breaker, you goddamn rebel.
